Audrey

She’s learning the world through play, but also through love. She hugs hard, and reminds the grown-ups around her to slow down, breathe, and appreciate the magic in the moment. Whether it’s a sidewalk puddle or bird in a tree. She notices the beauty we forget to see. She’s an old soul in a new world, making it brighter every day just by being in it. She’s still learning how to be a person, but somehow she’s already the kind of person we all hope to be.

She shares a special bond with her older sister, who is her half-sister by blood, but her whole heart by love. She looks up to her with wide eyes and endless love. She loves the water, from swimming in pools, to playing in the bathroom sink with her little people. She’ll dance to just about anything, but playing Benson Boone will take her out of any tantrum. She loves sunglasses and hats, as well as trying on new clothes. She adores spending time with her friends at the park and going for walks!

Winning $25,000 would mean more to our family than words can fully express. As parents of two young daughters, we work hard to create a life full of love, laughter, and meaningful experiences. But like many families, the day-to-day responsibilities often leave little room—financially or emotionally—for the quality time we deeply crave. Our girls are growing fast. Being able to step away from work and daily stress to spend time as a whole family would be a dream.
